Our Little Miss is Three!!

Last week we celebrated our sweet litttle girl's birthday.  Friday, April 7th was Cadence's 3rd Birthday.  I can't believe that she is 3 already, but in so many ways she seems so much older than 3.

Must watch "one show" each night before bed

Friday morning Cadence woke up to lots of balloons.  She was so excited it was her birthday.

Once we got the boys off to school I told Cadence about her surprise.  Nani, Aunt Rachel and Freya were coming to our house and we were going to go to the ballet together.  The same dance company that did the ballet for toddlers at Christmas were putting on another production called "Once Upon a Season".  Cadence got all ready in her new birthday dress.

Once our surprise guests arrived we headed to the ballet.  They had crafts in the lobby while we waited for the doors of the theatre to open.  She loves the crafts as much as she does watching the ballet.

Then it was time for the ballet.  It was a cute show.  They danced and acted out all the different seasons.  Cadence and Freya both seemed to really love it.

After the show they invite the kids on stage to practise movements.  Cadence was excited to go on stage but then of course was too shy to participate.  Maybe next time.

Love these two!!

After the ballet we went out for a birthday lunch then back to the house to open birthday presents from Auntie, Freya and Nani.

Once Daddy and brothers were home it was time to open more presents.

"Mommy can you get this dress off of me so I can ride my bike"

Then it was time for her favorite supper of Kraft dinner and hotdogs.

Cadence had requested a chocolate cake with pink icing.

We are so blessed to have this sweet little girl in our family.  We just love her to bits!

Happy Birthday Cadence!!
